Firefighters stopped the progress of the 40-acre fire, which broke out late Wednesday in the Sepulveda Pass, officials said.

A 10-acre brush fire burning on the east side of the Sepulveda Pass near Bel-Air prompted an evacuation warning.

It was first reported just after 11 p.m. near northbound lanes of the freeway in Sherman Oaks, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department.

Moraga Bel Air Vineyards, owned by media mogul Rupert Murdoch, was understood to be among the properties that received evacuation warnings that were later lifted due to the fire near the Getty Center.
